The regional WYCAS Finance Forums provide an opportunity for people who volunteer or work in the voluntary and charitable sector to get together on a quarterly basis to discuss finance and accounting issues. Cutting Your Costs: Times are tough for all of us – need for your services is rising, income is getting harder to find, and setting budgets for 2023/24 is going to be a challenge for many organisations. We’d like to know what are the ways that your organisation is managing to reduce costs? We know that there is a wealth of knowledge out there among finance workers and treasurers, and at our Finance Forum we’re looking for your tips, ideas and queries to share with others. If you work (paid or unpaid) in finance in the voluntary and community sector and would like to join the WYCAS virtual Finance Forum we’d be very pleased to welcome you. Topics vary and for example may include:

• Gift Aid
• Charities and trading and tax
• Setting up a charity shop
• Reserves policies
